In the UK I don't see many type 3's on the road, they seem to have been over looked? This was the line up at VW action.

Oh yeah, Type III's are sweet too. I like the look of the late ones best.

Don't lie. You know think the the pig-noses are ugly.

If you remember back in the days know one wanted type 3's. It was always the one that was lucky enough to head off to the local junk yard.. So now there not to many of them around and there getting very rare. So yes the price with diffently go up on them. The type 3 is the best driving vw and there is more room in them as well.. Doesnt feel like your sitting on a dash..

$18,187.1 USD What size motor does this red Notch contain? That's a serious tach.

The fact is everything is going up. Have you guys seen the price of gas lately.

Its more then just inflation, its greed and I hate to say it but its going to swallow us all up. The price of everything has at minimum dubbed if not tripled and wages have not gone up accordingly.

The fact is when you see a roted out baja 58 vert going for 6,500 and not more then 5 years ago you could have got a driver for $4,000. Yes these cars are getting rarer but the fact is everything is getting overpriced.

And don't even get me started on the price of new cars, lol.

It's worth exactly what the buyer and seller agree upon. It's been listed here since July, so what does that tell you?

What floors me is how long the original red 1962 Notch that Russ Canales had here for sale took to sell at under $10k. I think it may STILL be for sale at oldbug. Just amazing.

I would have bought it if I had the room for it. Or the money.

The only problem greed only benefits the greedy, Someone has to be hurt in order for the greedy to prosper. I guess thats why its one of the 7 deadly sin's

$19K is impossible for that.

That car looks awesome though.
